In the world of online dating, the story of men being rejected frequently has become a familiar topic. Many opinions say that women are the ones who hold the weight to a high standard with strict standards, according to hindustantimes.
However, a new study published in the scientific journal PLOS One offers a completely different perspective when it is men who place too high expectations on their potential target.
The study was conducted with nearly 3,000 sex users on a dating app in the Czech Republic. The results show that men tend to be attracted to women who are more highly appreciated for their attractiveness or desire in the community. In other words, they often set goals beyond their reach.
On the contrary, women are more flexible in their choices. They often look for partners with the same attraction, even willing to accept someone less outstanding than them.
This explains why men often feel rejected. The problem is not necessarily the difficulties of women, but comes from the lack ofreality in men's choices. When setting standards too high and pursuing more outstanding subjects, the possibility of failure will increase significantly.
According to experts, the key to a successful relationship is balance and similarity. Couples with a similar level of attraction are more likely to connect and maintain a lasting relationship.
This study is also a reminder for men when participating in online dating, instead of focusing all their expectations on "stars" who are too out of place, open their hearts to people of the same class to increase their chances of finding harmony.
In the context of dating apps becoming increasingly popular tools for connecting, adjusting expectations not only helps reduce the risk of being rejected but also opens up many opportunities for real connection.
Because after all, love is not a race to conquer outstanding beauty, but a journey to find suitability and empathy.
